OUR STORY
Welcome to Citrus Cattle Company LLC. We are a fourth generation farming and ranching family located at the seat of the Sierra Nevadas in Woodlake, California. We raise the freshest citrus and the finest Angus beef. We are dedicated to helping friends and families, like you, finally have connection to local, humanely raised and harvested citrus finished beef. The science shows that eating citrus promotes healthier cows, and we swear it results in a better tasting, juicier cut of beef.
Is sourcing the highest quality and most nutrient dense beef important to you and your family? Have you found that other organic labels are sourced from outside the US? Have you discovered some of the problems with our current food supply chain that became even more exposed during the COVID pandemic? This is where our story begins.
From our ranch in the small farming community of Woodlake, California we have been able to combine our citrus production and our love for our cattle herd, to develop a finished product that is healthier and better than anything we could find in the market. During COVID, with our freezer full of beef, we did not feel the crisis at the grocery stores or the price fluctuations because we had fairly priced local cuts to cover our family for an extended period of time. We realized that we wanted to do the same for our community and surrounding areas and provide sustainable resilience to the food systems.
At Citrus Cattle Co. we are committed to bringing you the highest quality, sustainably raised beef without all the stress and costs involved with other available sources. Our cows are bred, raised and finished on the ranch. We have been carefully selecting angus genetics for our adaptability, structure and finishing quality for over 25 years. Our ranch and farming practices promote healthy cows, healthy soil, and clean water which we feel are the foundations of a healthy family and community. We’d love to tell you more about our ranch and process. Feel free to reach out and ask about anything you’d like.
We are proud to be a part of the healthy soil focused, farm to table movement. We are able to offer our customers the highest quality beef. The cattle are fed a unique blend of fresh citrus during the growing and finishing periods in addition to their grazing and nutritional needs. Our customers have found our product delicious, nutritious, and packed with energy and clean nutrients that support their lifestyle, diet, and core values. Crone's sufferers also report our beef is the only one they can eat with their condition and feel good afterward.
Our family hopes that you will join our ranch and the movement to regenerate the land, while bringing quality local food options back to our communities. With your support through eating our beef and sharing your experience with friends and family, we have confidence we can steward the land and continually bring you nutritionally balanced protein sources without the stress, transport, and cost of supply chain meat production. You will feel good about what you are eating!
Thank you for choosing Citrus Cattle Co. We look forward to serving you and bringing you along on our ranch journey. When you buy a beef share you are investing in your health and your food security as well as becoming part of the Citrus Beef family and sustainable food movement.
